  • What Goes Up Original Spray Paint Acrylic Painting by Meggs What Goes Up Original Spray Paint Acrylic Painting by Meggs

    Meggs What Goes Up Original Spray Paint Acrylic Painting by Meggs

    What Goes Up Original Spray Paint Acrylic Painting by Meggs One of a Kind Artwork on Canvas with Custom Reclaimed Wood Frame by Street Art Pop Artist. 2014 Signed Acrylic & Spray Paint Painting Original Canvas in Artist Hand Made Reclaimed Wood Frame Artwork Size 49x49. From Spoiled Rotten Show. Exploring the Dynamic Essence of Meggs' "What Goes Up" "What Goes Up" is an original acrylic and spray paint painting by the acclaimed street pop artist Meggs that encapsulates the dynamism and energy of his work. Created in 2014, this artwork reflects Meggs' signature style, which harmoniously blends street art's rawness with pop art's vividness. This one-of-a-kind artwork is a statement piece and a storytelling canvas that explores themes prevalent in Meggs' oeuvre, such as the constant struggle between opposing forces and the transient nature of success and failure. The painting measures 46x46 inches and is housed in a custom reclaimed wood frame handcrafted by the artist. Reclaimed wood adds an eco-conscious dimension to the artwork, reinforcing Meggs' interest in sustainability and the repurposing of materials. This choice of framing also accentuates the urban and gritty feel of the painting, resonating with the street art tradition of using found objects and spaces. Artistic Techniques and Visual Impact in "What Goes Up" Meggs employs acrylic and spray paint in "What Goes Up," showcasing his adeptness at using traditional and non-traditional media. The acrylic provides depth and texture, while the spray paint offers a sense of immediacy and spontaneity intrinsic to graffiti artwork. The painting is a cacophony of colors, bursting forth from a central point, suggesting an explosion of energy and creativity. The colors are not just randomly splashed across the canvas; they are meticulously layered to create a visual impact that is both chaotic and controlled. The artwork features a skull motif, a recurring element in Meggs' art, which often symbolizes the transient nature of human existence and the cyclical nature of life. However, in "What Goes Up," the skull is juxtaposed with vibrant colors and comic-style exclamations, which could be interpreted as a commentary on the superficiality of popular culture and the fleeting nature of fame and success. The skull seems to be disintegrating or exploding into an array of colors and shapes, a powerful visual metaphor for the inevitable downfall that follows a rise to the top. Cultural Commentary and the Essence of Street Pop Art The painting's title, "What Goes Up," hints at the adage "what goes up must come down," suggesting a narrative of ascent and descent. Meggs often infuses his Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork with philosophical musings and critical observations of society. The work symbolizes the cyclical patterns of life and can be seen as a reflection of the transient nature of success or the hubris that often precedes a fall. The artist's use of text in the painting, rendered in a comic book style, adds a layer of communication with the viewer, inviting them to ponder the deeper meanings behind the vibrant facade. The piece is a testament to the artist's ability to navigate the space between gallery and street art, making it accessible to a diverse audience. The inclusivity of street art is evident in Meggs' work, where the public space becomes a canvas for dialogue, and the art becomes a part of the everyday urban landscape. "What Goes Up" is not just a visual spectacle but also a piece of cultural commentary, encapsulating the ethos of street art and its role in contemporary discourse. "What Goes Up" is a prime example of Meggs' impact on the field of street art and his contribution to the broader pop art movement. The painting manifests the artist's dedication to craft, concept, and commentary. Through the integration of various artistic techniques and the strategic use of reclaimed materials, Meggs has created an artwork that is both a visual feast and a conceptual powerhouse. The significance of Meggs' work lies in its ability to resonate with viewers on multiple levels. This work can be appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and ability to evoke emotion and provoke thought. As a piece of Street Pop Art and graffiti Artwork, "What Goes Up" embodies the spirit of this genre, which continues to push the boundaries of art and its place in society. It remains a poignant piece within Meggs' body of work and within the larger conversation of contemporary art.

  • C/S II Silkscreen Pearl Print by OG Slick x Chaz Bojorquez

    OG Slick C/S II Silkscreen Pearl Print by OG Slick x Chaz Bojorquez

    C/S II 9-Color Hand-Pulled Limited Edition Distressed Pearl White Finish Silkscreen Print on 250gsm Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper by OG Slick x Chaz Bojorquez Rare Street Art Famous Pop Artwork Artist. 2016 Signed by OG Slick x Chaz Bojorquez & Numbered Limited Edition of 150 P2 The Fusion of Styles in C/S II by OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez The collaboration between OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez on the C/S II silkscreen print represents a significant moment in street pop art and graffiti artwork. This piece, created in 2016, is a fine example of how two artists can merge their distinctive styles to create a unique work that reflects their individual artistic identities. The 9-color hand-pulled limited edition distressed pearl white finish silkscreen print on 250gsm Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship and artistic vision shared by the two legends of the street art scene. OG Slick, an artist with a background deeply rooted in the Los Angeles graffiti movement, brings his iconic imagery and urban sensibilities to the piece. Known for his bold and often subversive visual language, Slick’s contribution to C/S II is immediately apparent in the stylized cartoon hands and contemporary iconography that speaks to street culture's commercial and gritty aspects. His work has often been characterized by a playfulness that belies a more profound commentary on social and cultural issues. This is evident in how he manipulates familiar symbols and characters to challenge viewers’ perceptions. Chaz Bojorquez's Signature Style in C/S II Chaz Bojorquez’s influence in the piece is equally profound. His signature style, which draws from the Cholo graffiti tradition and his sophisticated understanding of typography, complements Slick’s more whimsical elements with a sense of gravity and history. The calligraphic strokes and the intricate lettering in the background of C/S II are unmistakably Bojorquez’s, showcasing his mastery over form and ability to convey a rich cultural narrative through his art. His work captures the essence of a subculture that has often been marginalized, elevating it to a level of fine art that demands recognition and respect. The collaboration between these two artists on C/S II is a dialogue between different eras and styles within the street art genre. While OG Slick’s work is often seen as a bridge between the early days of street art and the modern aesthetic, Bojorquez represents the soulful, enduring aspects of graffiti art woven into the cultural fabric of urban life. Together, their work on this print creates a complex interplay of color, form, and symbolism that celebrates street art’s past and a bold statement about its future. Cultural Significance of the Limited Edition C/S II Print The cultural significance of the C/S II print lies in its embodiment of the spirit of street pop art and graffiti artwork. Limited to an edition of 150, each print is signed by OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez, making it a rare and collectible piece that holds great value for street art lovers. The decision to limit the edition not only underscores the value of the artwork but also speaks to the ethos of street art, where the fleeting nature of the medium often means that works can be temporary and transient. By capturing this transient essence in a tangible form, OG Slick and Bojorquez have created a lasting artifact of street culture. The piece is particularly notable for its distressed pearl white finish, which adds texture and depth to the print. This finish gives the artwork a tactile quality that invites closer inspection and suggests a history behind the image as if it has been weathered by time and the elements – a nod to the real-world conditions of street art. The use of Stonehenge White Fine Art Paper further elevates the piece, marrying the raw energy of graffiti with the refinement of fine art printing techniques. Impact and Legacy of C/S II in Street Art and Pop Culture The impact and legacy of C/S II in street art and pop culture are significant. By bringing together two influential artists from different generations, the print bridges the early days of Los Angeles graffiti and the contemporary street art scene. It reflects the genre's evolution, showing how it can be a personal means of expression and a sophisticated art form. The print’s aesthetic, marked by the interplay of Bojorquez’s calligraphic skill and Slick’s graphic sensibility, exemplifies the potential of street art to engage with broader artistic movements and to be recognized in the wider context of pop art. As a piece of street pop and graffiti artwork, C/S II is a powerful example of the genre’s ability to adapt and grow while retaining its core principles. It is a reminder of the enduring influence of artists like OG Slick and Chaz Bojorquez, who continue to shape and inspire the trajectory of street art. Through works like this, they ensure that the streets' vibrant energy, defiance, and creativity remain a vital part of our cultural landscape.

The upper body and face of Mickey Mouse are cloaked in black, offering an intense contrast against the vibrant backdrop and evoking a sense of mystery. The inspiration behind this distinctive portrayal stems from OG Slick's childhood memories of Chinatown. There, small figurines placed at store registers were believed to bestow good fortune upon the shop owner and those who offered money. This traditional practice is cleverly juxtaposed with a modern twist in the artwork, where Guan Yin is illustrated being showered with digital currency, hinting at the evolving dynamics of value, faith, and the digital age. Through "Ink Head Slick Yellow", OG Slick has once again demonstrated his unique ability to amalgamate cultural symbols, childhood memories, and urban influences, creating an art piece that resonates deeply with both traditional and contemporary sentiments.

OG Slick, whose roots are firmly planted in the street culture of Los Angeles, brings his iconic imagery to the collaboration. His contributions to the C/S I print are characterized by the cartoon-like gloves that gesture towards the viewer, a direct and impactful use of imagery that has become a signature of his work. This graphical element starkly contrasts the intricate background, inviting a dialogue about the interaction between pop culture and the subversive nature of graffiti art. Signature Elements and Cultural Commentary in C/S I Chaz Bojorquez's influence within the C/S I print is unmistakable.

Bojorquez's artistry with letters goes beyond mere aesthetics, delving into the identity politics and social narratives that have always been at the heart of his work. The distressed pearl white finish on the print adds a dimension of age and texture, suggesting a weathered quality often found in street art exposed to the elements.

Mickey Mouse Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Mickey Mouse is an Icon in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Mickey Mouse, the cheerful rodent created by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks in 1928, has transcended his animated origins to become a symbolic figure in street pop art and graffiti artwork. This cultural icon, recognized by his circular ears and gleeful demeanor, has been appropriated by street artists worldwide as a symbol of childhood innocence and a canvas for social and political commentary. In the diverse and often provocative world of street art, Mickey Mouse emerges not merely as a nostalgic figure but as a versatile tool for artists to express their views on a myriad of topics, from consumer culture to the loss of innocence and the omnipresence of media in contemporary life. Mickey Mouse's journey into the lexicon of street pop art and graffiti artwork is remarkable, signifying the character's enduring impact on popular culture. Initially designed as a whimsical character for children's entertainment, Mickey's image has been transformed and reinterpreted through the lenses of various street artists, who have often placed him in contexts far removed from his playful Steamboat Willie beginnings. These reinterpretations range from placing Mickey in ironic scenarios that critique the corporate culture he is part of to using his image to explore themes of identity and the human condition. This appropriation is a testament to the character's universal recognition and the ease with which his image can be manipulated to convey complex messages.

Mickey Mouse's Dual Role in Contemporary Art

The dual role of Mickey Mouse in street pop art and graffiti artwork – as both a beloved character and a vehicle for critique – is a reflection of the character's profoundly ingrained place in global consciousness. On one hand, Mickey's image can evoke a sense of joy and nostalgia, harkening back to simpler times. On the other, it can highlight the pervasive influence of corporate entities in everyday life. This duality has made Mickey Mouse a favored subject in street art, allowing for a unique interplay between the ostensibly innocent and the critical, the commercial and the countercultural. Through Mickey's image, street artists can communicate with a broad audience, leveraging the character's popularity to ensure that their message is received and contemplated. Internationally, Mickey Mouse has become a common sight in street art hotspots, from the Los Angeles alleys to the Berlin lanes. The character has been depicted in many styles, from lifelike renderings to abstract interpretations, each bringing a different perspective to this animated icon. The ubiquitous presence of Mickey in street pop art underscores the global reach of his image and the diverse interpretations he inspires. In this urban art setting, Mickey becomes a shared language among artists, a way to connect with disparate audiences who might not share a spoken language but can understand and appreciate the visual symbolism of this iconic character.

Commercial Iconography and its Discontents

The frequent depiction of Mickey Mouse in street pop art and graffiti artwork raises questions about commercial iconography and its place in public spaces. While Disney's Mickey is a protected trademark, his image's use in street art often falls into a gray area, balancing between homage, parody, and critique. This dynamic is fundamental to street art's ethos – to challenge norms and provoke thought by repurposing familiar images in unexpected ways. The tension between commercial imagery and public art continues to fuel debates on intellectual property, art, and freedom of expression, with Mickey often at the center of these discussions. Mickey Mouse's presence in street pop art and graffiti artwork is multifaceted, embodying both a celebration of popular culture and a critique of it. The evolution of Mickey's image in the hands of street artists reflects the complex relationship between commercial entities and the public domain. As street art continues to flourish and evolve, the image of Mickey Mouse is likely to remain a potent symbol for artists to express their creativity and critique, solidifying the character's status not just as a beloved animated figure but also as an essential icon in contemporary art.
